Is your office filing system in dire need of upgrading? If you’re responsible for information of a sensitive nature, can you guarantee its security? Is your company safe at risk of being targeted by thieves or through industrial espionage?

There are a number of reasons why you should consider a filing system upgrade and the same for your office storage. In the interest of security, Office Storage Solutions (OSS) can help you to choose the right equipment for your filing and storage facilities.

We have more than 20 years experience in the business of providing answers to storage and filing problems. You can trust our judgement and knowledge.

Those 5 important reasons why you may well need an office storage upgrade:

1. Easier Access: Perhaps your staff needs better access to retrieve and return files more easily. We have various shelving and storage systems that you can upgrade to: library, static or roller-racking shelving. All come with additional features. OSS can also provide mobile shelving and mobile storage systems with floor and track systems for even better accessibility.
 
2. Security: You can prevent serious security breaches with superior storage facilities from OSS. We offer a variety of highly secure safes that can store and protect laptops, data storage disks, company documents, and other sensitive information. Programmable electronic locks with personal 14-digit codes and fingerprint technology are vital security features.

3. Data Protection Act 1998: The Act clearly states that any organisation holding personal data must have appropriate security to protect the information. The protection covers accidental loss, destruction, damage, as well as unauthorised or unlawful use. 

You need to select the most secure storage facility to avoid breaching the Act. OSS can present you with different storage systems to choose from. For example, our vertical carousel filing system is an enclosed unit. It has security keypads for limited access and high security locks. It also comes with additional features of fire detection and protection.

4. Improved Efficiency: Less time can be wasted by staff searching for files that have been returned to the wrong place. Our filing systems have increased storage capacity (by more than 50 per cent) by simply using landscape orientated lever arch files. Files can be retrieved and returned even faster using alpha-numeric and colour coding of tabbed folders resulting in fewer files being mislaid.

5. Reduced Floor Space: OSS has the perfect solution if you have limited floor space to install an office filing system. Our mobile shelving units can reduce the take-up area by as much as 50 per cent. There’s an innovatively designed rotary storage unit with increased storage space of up to 400 per cent. The contents of 17 four-drawer filing cabinets can be stored within the unit. Now, isn’t that tempting?
